During a fierce WWE Tag Team Title Match against Team Hell No on WWE Main Event Wednesday night, Cody Rhodes sustained an injury in the ring at the hands of the monstrous Kane.

While battling The Big Red Monster, the second generation competitor took a hard fall, resulting in what WWE’s Dr. Sampson characterized as a concussion and a strained shoulder. Sampson stated further tests would be done in the coming days.

With just days to go before Survivor Series, Rhodes’ status for the pay-per-view is now in question. It is not yet known whether Rhodes, a member of Team Ziggler, will be able to compete in the Traditional Survivor Series Elimination Tag Team Match against Team Foley.

Stay tuned to WWE.com for the very latest on Rhodes’ injury and status.

Injured 'Star'? :troll

But in all seriousness Rhodes is in my top 10 right now, and this is bad news. If it's serious, it means Rhodescolars will have to break up and no other tag team as entertaining (maybe besides PTP) will feud with Hell No.

I just fear that since Sandow will probably be alone now, they will postpone his tag team push, have no idea what to do with him, and might end up ruining him.

Top 10 in WWE? Fuck, I can't even get to ten. I can't even get to five!

This sucks for Cody but unless I'm misreading, it's just a concussion, right? Not to undersell the long-term effects of concussions or anything but I doubt he'll miss too much time, if any. I've watched enough NFL & pro-wrestling in my life that I would put my money on Cody working the PPV Sunday. A shoulder strain ain't shit.

Good. Sandow can go singles again. He's too good to be stuck in a tag team with Cody Rhodes, hopefully it means he'll get more mic time too.

Hope Cody Rhodes gets better though and blah blah blah
Lol. This is what I was going to come here and post basically, I'm tired of seeing Sandow being trapped in a forced tag team, push the man as the true star as he is. He need to take the Intercontinental championship away from Kofi immediately.

Inb4 this turns into a Shawn Michaels/Jannety thing lol
They only teamed for like a month, and assuming this is a relatively long term injury (2 months or over), they are probably broken up for good. I don't think a one month team really counts towards the Micheals/Jannetty theory.

hope he recovers soonand its not too serious. but if he is out for awhile, hopefully they don't leave Sandow out to dry doing nothing or give him another partner. good time to implement him into the Intercontinental Division

Well this could be a blessing in disguise, as hopefully now they'll push Sandow as a singles star. Vince is apparently high on Sandow so he should push him now. They could break them up by having Sandow say Rhodes was holding him back and that he's the is the superior talent (which he is). They should push him into a IC Title feud with Kofi.

I can't help but feel this could be a blessing in disguise for both guys. I liked Team Rhode Scholars but the truth is they are both much better single stars. Sandow can now get his push to a midcard title and Cody can take a long needed few months off and come back rejuvinated and get a singles push as well, fingers crossed.

I love how people here are like "yay, now Dam13n S4nd0w can winz all the titulz!" We all knew Rhodes Scholars wasn't going to be anything even close to permanent, but is it really the worst thing to establish Sandow as a decent tag team partner? It's not as if Cody was holding Sandow back--if anything, the team was gaining both guys exposure in that "revitalized" tag team division everyone clamors for. So now everyone is thrilled that we've (probably) lost one of those teams just because they figure that the one guy who was going to get pushed anyways is suddenly going to get a Ryback-level push?

It does suck to see that Cody's going to be out for however long. After WM, he lost a shit-ton of mometum and while the tag team wasn't going to push him to superstardom, it was good to see him being used. Now we're just going to have to see how things go upon return.

And really, Cody? I would've been okay with ADR, Orton, or Sheamus (and I mean really okay). But at least it wasn't Barrett, I would've flipped my shit if he had to be out again.
